2. Untochability a Social evil:
Tip
Untouchables were not seen as a part of society. They were denied basic human rights.
Explanation
Untouchability is a social evil as it can be traced to the beginning of the Varna system. According to the Varna system, people were segregated according to their roles. Each caste had was expected to perform the given roles:
Brahmins were scholars, Kshatriya were administrators, Vysya was related to business and shudras were manual labourers. Untouchables were never considered humans.
The British government classified Untouchables and tribal people as Scheduled castes and tribes with the help of India Government Act, 1935.
The difference also existed because of the difference in the socio-economic arenas of one’s life.
Due to Untouchability, basic right to education, property and actively participating in the politics was denied.
Due to the Varna system, untouchables were given the lowest strata of the society and everyone treated them as if they’re not humans.
Untouchability as a practice restricted the growth of untouchables and never gave them the opportunity to associate with the society.
Constitutionally, provisions have been laid which abolished the practice of untouchability in any form.
Final answer
Untouchability as a practice is a social evil as it limits the growth of an individual by labelling them as an inferior group to be left alone. The rest of the society will prosper but, they have been restricted.
